Sequels that disrespect characters or stories from previous installments, or undo events etc, or just betray the original creators vision in general.
Star Wars: The Force Awakens Alien 3

Even though both are by Ridley Scott, I recall Alien: Covenant badly disrespecting a character from Prometheus.

The first disrespectful sequel that comes to mind is The Hidden II (1993). It undid the happy ending from the excellent The Hidden (1987), so the filmmakers (none of the original cast or crew returned) could rehash the plot of the first film. I'd call it forgettable, except I can never forgive or forget this direct-to-video (according to Entertainment Weekly) "crud."

Surprised no one has listed Jaws: The Revenge yet...Chief Martin Brody, a man who single handedly killed two large great white sharks up close in explosive and shocking ways (see what I did there? Couldn't resist) is said to have died due to a heart attack brought on by fear of sharks.

How so? Out of all the T2 followups, Dark Fate felt like the most faithful as a direct continuation, and James Cameron seemed the most involved and passionate about it too.
T3 and Genisys if anything would be the disrespectful ones. They're fun but are more like fan fiction, especially Genisys which does ridiculous things to the lore. They never really bothered me as I see them as fun "what if" type movies.

Superman III craps all over the epicness of the first two films.
Aside from the pre-titles sequence, Diamonds Are Forever is a parody, far different in tone from its previous installment, On Her Majesty's Secret Service which was fairly serious-minded and tragic.

I don’t know, the junkyard fight was pretty epic.

I did not finish Terminator 2 wanting a sequel where John Connor dies in the opening scene and is replaced by a Latino girl that can tackle a Terminator, where a t-800 makes drapes, and where Sarah Connor somehow is able to destroy Terminators without a sweat and claims they only thought she was important because of her womb

I agree, the ending just undoes Woody's character and the themes of the previous installments, but if Woody had to move on and leave his friends with their new owner, wouldn't it have made more sense for Buzz Lightyear to be the new "sheriff", and not Jessie? I do not recall her doing enough to warrant the badge.
